Dell PowerEdge M640 blade server

The Dell PowerEdge M640 is a blade server configured with two Xeon Gold 5215 processors and 192 GB of DDR4 memory. It includes two 1.8 TB SAS hard drives managed by a PERC H330 storage controller. Remote management is provided through iDRAC9 Enterprise.

Suited for dense compute clusters.

This server suits deployments that need many CPU cores in a compact blade form factor. Buyers who want more storage than two drives or require dedicated GPU acceleration should look at something else.

Two 1.8 TB SAS drives with PERC H330 controller

The installed storage consists of two 1.8 TB SAS hard drives connected to a Dell PERC H330 SAS storage controller. This capacity and interface determine whether the server meets your data-set requirements.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 192GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory later?

The server ships with 192GB DDR4 ECC registered installed and supports up to 1TB total capacity across its slots.

What does the 2.5 GHz Xeon Gold 5215 speed mean for actual workloads?

Each of the two 10-core Xeon Gold 5215 CPUs runs at 2.5 GHz with 13.75 MB cache, delivering 20 cores for parallel tasks such as virtualization and database work.

How does the SAS interface with the PERC H330 controller affect storage performance?

The two 1.8TB SAS drives connect through the PERC H330 RAID controller, providing hardware RAID 0 or 1 for redundancy or throughput on the SAS bus.
